Environment

  • Python version: 3.6.9
  • NetBox version: 2.6.6

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Import a new power feed, fill all fields (including the rack_group)
  2. View the feed

Expected Behavior

Feed add/view should include rack_group

Observed Behavior

Feed add/view is missing rack_group

Additional Details

Pursuant to: 800df1ebbe

Edit: Sorry for so many edits... Powerfeeds as a whole need to be reviewed to add in rack_group. It's also missing from the sidebar search, there's no heading for it when listing all power feeds, etc.

Power panel view shows Both Rack Group and Power Feeds. Is it not good?

We've a lot of common naming in our IX unique to individual rack groups. Having to jump to a power panel just to see what rack_group its' in versus having it right with the rest of the data in view is sub-optimal from a work flow standpoint.

I suppose leaving it out of the tabular list of power feeds is OK if we can add filtering by rack_group in that view.

Edit: It would still be preferred to show the rack group on individual power feeds views as well.

I would like to know more about your point. At power panel list view, you can search desired rack group and see the relation between rack group and power feed inside the searched power panel. Does this not fit your workflow?

If we would add rack_group to the page, we have to retrieve nested objects. This may effect for other pages now. This is because the list and search are included from shared template files which show related objects excluding nested for the display object.
